The global DRAM industry’s total revenue for 3Q was approximately US$6.566 billion. Due to weak economies worldwide and a severe oversupply situation, DDR3 4GB average contract price fell from US$31 to US$19.5, a decrease of nearly 37%. DRAM makers’ total revenue decreased significantly, by 19.4% QoQ. Besides Samsung Semiconductors, all other DRAM manufacturers reported losses for 3Q. Additionally, DRAM makers actively transitioned to the 30nm-node process and the production of DDR3 4Gb chips. The sufficiency ratio for 1H12 will still be over 15%, which will stimulate capacity cuts or even mergers in the DRAM industry...

According to DRAMeXchange, a research division of TrendForce, total revenue for the global DRAM industry in 2Q11 was approximately US$8.1 billion. Although DRAM ASP (average selling price) increased slightly due to expectations of supply disruption from the Japan earthquake, ProMOS’s decrease in wafer start volume and Powerchip’s increase of non-DRAM products caused overall revenue to decrease slightly, 1.9% from 1Q11...
According to DRAMeXchange, a research department of Trendforce, despite 30% contract price drop, 1Q11 worldwide DRAM revenue merely declined 4% to US$8.3bn from US$8.6bn due to the 15% output increase...
According to a survey conducted by DRAMeXchange, a research division of Trendforce, in 2011, the shipments of DT are expected to reach 149.7M units, a 2.6% YoY increase; the shipments of notebooks, including netbooks, are expected to reach 215.2M units, a 11% YoY increase; the shipments of netbooks are expected to reach 25.9M units, a 22.2% YoY decrease...
The magnitude 9.0 quake hit northeastern Japan on March 11th has left thousands of people homeless and damaged DRAM supply chain. The suspended Shin-Etsu and SUMCO northeastern plants have reduced global Raw-Wafer capacity by 20 to 25%. Hitachi Chemical and Mitsubishi Gas Chemical, two companies producing over 80% of BT resin used in module houses, were also affected by the quake. Other key raw materials such as photo-resistor, target and Nitrogen were also affected. Following the quake, DRAM vendors checked the inventory level on raw materials, confirmed on the possibility of second supply source in order to reduce loss...
The magnitude of 9.0 Earthquake at Tohoku Japan on March 11th has brought the new dynamics to NAND Flash market recently. However, since the information about the Earthquake damage evaluation as well as recovery progress of power & transportation infrastructures is still undetermined & unclear, we only have made some comments based on the current information we collected...
Based on the survey conducted by DRAMeXchange, a research division of TrendForce, due to Japan earthquake, Fukushima No. 1 power generator was shut down and caused a radiation leak, which led to an electric power cut in northeast Japan. Since March 14th, Japan started to enforce electrical brownouts among areas with less damage, and made electrical usage concerning transportation and daily life the first priority. There is still no definite time on when electricity will be restored in Miyagi and Fukushima, where the earthquake caused serious damage...
According to DRAMeXchange, the research division of Trendforce, despite of 16% QoQ DRAM output increase in 4Q10, DRAM industry revenue still decreased 20% to US$8.64bn from US$10.78bn with the 40% 4Q10 DRAM contract price decline...
